199 guests' feedbackPleasantly surprised. For sure our place to stay on Calvinia if we are in the area.
Very nice stay at Die Ou Lady.
The old lady is a lovely place in the heart of the town. My children really enjoyed the farm feel and gym! The cottages all have a lot of character and are very clean.
Quiet and tidy room.
The stay was very good. Quiet area, very safe, and the children could enjoy the park.
A little gem. We found everything and more there than we needed!
Very nice. All our needs met.
Warm and comfortable. Welcomed by the staff and the room was as we expected. Just a tip: the shower was not draining. We stayed in Molly room and it would be good to have simple printed instructions to use the TV and DStv, as we started watching late and did not want to ask the staff. Thank you.
Very friendly and helpful management. Gorgeous rooms with everything you need. They kindly allowed us to leave our vehicle there for 10 days while we walked the Tankwa Camino. Highly recommended.
Clean and tidy. We stayed one night and the electric blankets were great to ward off the cold.
Clean linen, nice hot shower. Excellent location.
Clean, friendly welcome. Great value and safe behind security gates parking.
The first room was not suitable, but the woman helped us very nicely. We slept very well.
Well located and within walking distance of a popular restaurant. Secure parking and everything you need for an overnight stay. The air conditioning is a bonus to heat the cold room. The hostess was friendly and helpful. I felt the bedding, although clean, was past its prime and could be replaced. The previous guest's dirty clothes were still in the closet. Perhaps more attention could be paid to cleaning the room.
House is poorly cleaned. Towels and linen have seen their best days. Shower handles are off. Walls and doors are dirty. No washing machine to wash towels. You cannot use the same towel for 4 days. Bedding is old.
We had a great time. Will definitely visit the old Lady guest house again. Thank you again for your hospitality.
We had a wonderful stop-over at Die Ou Lady Gastehuis on our way to the coast. We stayed in the Lucy unit - the room was clean and comfortable, and we had the added bonus of safe parking for our car (inside an automatic gate). We also had a delicious breakfast the next morning before we carried on with our trip (the breakfast was an additional expense, but well worth it!).
Rooms are very nice and clean. Kitchen well equipped with coffee, tea, milk and biscuits. Everything that is needed. Friendly welcome, safe, peaceful environment — would stay there again.
Friendly staff.
The Old Lady Guest House is the perfect place to rest after a long day of travel. Joan is very friendly and the service is fantastic. The places are well equipped and have everything you need. Will definitely come again.
The reception was warm and friendly, immediately felt at home. It is a beautiful old building and the furniture matches the old building and the name so well, we had breakfast every morning in the beautiful warm dining room, breakfast was delicious every morning. We will definitely want to stay there again.
The unit has everything you need. Was neat and tidy.
Flowers were amazing on their way to Calvinia.
We slept great. It was one of the coldest nights this winter, but we slept cozy and warm. Full marks!
It was perfect for our one-night stop over on our way to our holiday destination. We will definitely use the Old Lady as our preferred stop-over should we travel that way again.
Lovely room with everything you could need. Friendly hostess.
The Old Lady Guest House is already well equipped for the Tankwa hikes. Baggage loading and unloading is at the door. Meet&Greet is also nearby. Been here for 6 nights now. No need to look for a place to sleep elsewhere.
There was no aspect of our stay that we didn't enjoy.
We always love stopping off in Calvinia. One of our favourite guesthouse's is Die Ou Lady Gastehuis.
Was received very kindly and everything we needed was available. Is in a quiet area and car is secure behind electric gates.
Very pleasant atmosphere that takes you back to the good old days.
Unit was well equipped for self catering.
Great service and friendly.
Hot water didn't work due to a recently replaced element in the geyser but the hostess resolved the issue by offering another room to use for ablutions.
We really enjoyed our stay in Calvinia. The room was beautifully put together, old with modern technology.
The unit was clean and tidy with full DSTV channels and everything needed! We had a lovely stay and would recommend this overnight accommodation and definitely use it again if we are in Calvinia.
Good value for money breakfast.
We visited the Hantamhuis, a must, and danced at Cielas with the Klipwerf Orkes.
Friendly, helpful, it's everything we expected - delicious breakfast. Enough extra blankets for the cold, safe parking, close to the Blue Naartjie Restaurant. Recommended!
Very quiet and pleasant.
We stayed in Lisa's Piano. Plekkie was big enough for our family and very neatly furnished with everything you might need. Very secure parking for our vehicle and caravan. Lights were available in room during load shedding. Will definitely stay there again.
Overnight stay after a nice camping week in the Kgalagadi. Great playground for children to stretch their legs. Adults too.
We spent the night there as a family. There is a nice, safe play area for the children after the long drive. The room is very comfortable, tidy and has everything you need.
We were a family of 3 adults (women). The unit (Lisa's piano) we slept in was really really cute. Parking is secure behind a sliding gate. The only "downside" for us was that the bathroom is an en suite in the master bedroom. So others will constantly have to bother those who sleep in that room for bathroom use. We wish we could explore the house and area further, but it was just a stopover on the way to the Cape.
Very friendly welcome. Neat and safe accommodation. Would recommend anytime.
Very nice stay, friendly reception, close to restaurant, nice big room and safe parking.
Was warmly welcomed and it was all we could have asked for. Had a lovely stay.
Perfect location for Tankwa hikes. Near red post box and baggage loading point.
Would definitely recommend the guest house.
Would recommend The Old Lady anytime.
Joan, the manager is a gem. She just makes you relax right away. The breakfast there is also recommendable. Great service, Thank you.
Feel safe. Service excellent. Clean. Everything you need for self-catering accommodation.
We had a very nice stay. Beautiful unit.
Will stay there again in the future.
Staff friendly, rooms clean.
Was nostalgic to go home in such an old restored building.
Was pleasant. Would definitely recommend it for an overnight stay.
The smell of smoke in the Mancave is really unpleasant and spoiled our visit a bit. The cleanliness in the Mancave could also be improved a bit. Otherwise it was nice with the animals and farm atmosphere and breakfast. The Blou Nartjie restaurant's food is great and they went out of their way to accommodate our wheelchair friend. Room Lucy was nice and comfortable for our wheelchair friend.
Nice clean and safe overnight stay for me and the children. Everyone slept well.
It's a wow place. The breakfast at the guesthouse is outstanding.
Was pleasantly surprised with the location and convenience of the premises. Our room was spacious with sleeping space for 7 people. The bathroom and kitchen area were neat and well equipped. Everything we needed. Parking behind the building with an electric gate. Old Lady is walking distance from everything in town. We had dinner in the Blue Naartjie. Mutton out of the books!
It was a very neat, clean and pleasant guest house to stay in. Friendly staff, and safety is maintained. Would definitely recommend it.
Went for a walk in the Karoo. Could safely leave my car there for a week.
Will definitely use again.
Second time we stay overnight at Old Lady. It goes without saying that we went back there again. Reception and staff very professional and friendly. Definitely back on our list of places to visit with next Namaqua tour.
Ideal overnight accommodation with everything needed. Nice and spacious, clean and tidy with safe parking and friendly reception. Definitely recommend.
The staff are very friendly and helpful, and know the area!
Comfortable and beautiful.
We stayed at Die ou Lady guest house for two days while we looked at flowers in the area. Everything was perfect for the purpose. Friendly service, clean and tidy room, nice bed with electric blanket. Good shower and bathroom. Breakfast was good. And the Blou Nartjie restuarant down the street makes delicious food. Can really recommend.
Truly worth 5 stars! They were so accommodating and saw to our every need. They provided a coffee plunger at our request and even put on the electric blankets to pre-warm our beds. It was a lovely stay and I will be back.
We decided to stop in Calvinia on our way back to Cape Town. Such a lovely place to stay, very well-decorated, comfortable, and clean. Definitely recommend it!
Fully equipped unit. Very clean and tidy. Friendly staff. Real country hospitality. Had a delicious breakfast at the Old Lady's restaurant.
Het net een aand gebly maar het goeie indruk van professionalisme gekry.
The hospitality was outstanding. Every detail has been taken care of and made unique. It's just a shame we didn't stay longer. An on-site beauty salon that looks great.
Only used overnight, was kindly received even though it was 20h00 in the evening.
Very neat and friendly reception.
Despite the fact that we only got there very late, we were warmly welcomed and quickly made at ease. Restaurant's food was delicious. Was ideal for a stopover. Everything we needed was available. Milk, coffee, tea, towels and comfortable linen.
The things were in place when we got there and we didn't have to wait for service. The manager of the place was very friendly and we were helped immediately. It was quiet in the evening and we could rest well. The rooms were comfortable and the appliances were adequate and in working order. Would stay there again anytime.
Because I paid in advance it was so painful not to fill in any long forms etc. Got key and could immediately start unpacking and exploring surroundings.
We had a great time and rested here. Hostess is very friendly and helpful, also very neat and cozy. Recommendation for a sharp mess in the unit.
Nice place to stay overnight with everything you need. Thank you very much.
Excellent service, lovely room, big shower and nice and safe with a view of the town while the fire burns.
The dishes were not really sufficient for four people who cook themselves etc. not.
Well located with restaurant within walking distance.
It is very clean and tidy. Reception was top notch.
Kitchen very neat and comfortable. The gate was difficult to open from the street side. Very friendly hostess.
The room was spacious with a comfortable bed and nice cuddly bedding. The water was nice and warm and towels big and soft. The kitchen was well equipped and I even got biscuits with coffee/tea. I will definitely stay at Die Ou Lady Gastehuis again.
Incredibly peaceful and just what we needed.
The owners received us when we went to walk the Biedouw Enduro. Definitely recommended, the hiking trails start just a stone's throw from The Old Lady.
We slept over in Calvinia seeing that we were on our way home from Yzerfontein to Theunissen, in the Free State. Our hostess received us kindly and showed us our room. We didn't eat there because we started driving back early the next morning. The stay was satisfactory.
Would have appreciated small towel along with bath towel. Mancave will remain my first choice. Includes breakfast at overnight facility.
The Piano Room needs renovation. Shower door broken and better facilities in the kitchen. Lezelle hostess was very friendly and helpful.
Very good service and very tidy.
Nice, hospitable people.
Neat, clean, spacious rooms. Everything you need for an overnight stay. Friendly hostess who was very helpful. Delicious breakfast. Will definitely stay there again.
The managers were very friendly and helpful and the room comfortably furnished with DSTV and WiFi. I can also recommend the breakfast, it is a big portion and delicious. Another advantage was that my car could be parked inside a secure enclosure with an electronic gate. I can definitely recommend Die Ou Lady Gastehuis.
Joan was really very friendly and helpful, the large en suite bedroom with double bed and extra single bed very comfortable and cosy. I had my semi-disabled mother and chihuahua dog with me, so the layout and location of the Old Lady with Blue Nartjie next door made our stay very comfortable. Especially the fact that everything was pet and wheelchair friendly.
I can really recommend the Old Lady! Lovely place!
We stayed in Annie and Lucy. I can definitely recommend Annie, very nice stay!
We were received with genuine rural friendliness and the unit we stayed in was five-star quality...I can really recommend it to anyone who wants to spend the night in Calvinia.
Staff make an effort and help with enquiries.
Will definitely stay there again.
We where greated by Joan who was so friendly and helpful. Was a lovely stay would definitely stay there again.
Nice friendly town.
This guest house offers everything you need.
See stars.
Bathrooms have short doors. Very inconvenient like that.
Only recommendation I would like to make is that a soap holder be installed in the shower.
Just stayed overnight, but was very nice.
We will definitely stay there again. The place is definitely safe and the room all we need to enjoy a good night's rest with DStv.
I would 110% recommend "The Old Lady Guest House" to young and old. Settlement is perfectly located. Secure parking. Wi-Fi. TV with dish. Then my favorite was the colossal shower. Full kitchen with necessities.
Accommodation was beautiful, neat and clean, with lovely large rooms. Everything you need was there and is also within walking distance of everything. Breakfast was also delicious.
See stars.
Very friendly, hospitable people. Always helpful with any reasonable request. Every morning we were greeted by all the staff we met. The restaurant's food is delicious and affordable. It was wonderful to be able to sit on the porch and relax. Thank you so much for your hospitality and nice chats. We really appreciated the piece of yourselves that was given to us. You will see us again.
We had a very nice stay. The Old Lady never disappoints!
Staff very helpful and friendly. Unit very cosy.
We had a very nice stay. I was very ill when we arrived and our hostess got me a doctor's appointment within 30 minutes. You don't get this care anymore in the city. Everything here is great. Had a delicious breakfast the next morning. I recommend Die Ou Lady Gastehuis and will definitely stay here again.
Safe and well slept.
Beautiful and neat room! Friendly people! Exceeding our expectations in all areas!
Excellent service, will use them again.
Very neat and clean guest house. Worth the money. Good location for travellers. Would definitely recommend the guest house for future travellers. Thanks so much, appreciate your hospitality.
All as advertised with a great play area for the kids.
Had a wonderful stay. We felt safe and the place was beautifully furnished with everything we needed.
It is one of the nicest guesthouses we've ever stayed at! Wish we booked for a longer stay.
The hostess was very friendly and accommodating. Everything was very neat and sufficient. Would definitely recommend the guest house.
Once again had a pleasant time and well received by the owner. The room was extremely neat and clean. A change since we last went there is that the kitchenette is now in the main bedroom and the fridge next to the bed which bothered us through the night, because I am a very light sleeper. Will always stay there in the future.
Very clean and tidy accommodation. Perfect hostess, Lucia.
Owner went out of her way to make it pleasant even though we were there on a holiday and went to the restaurant, they made us breakfast. Clean and comfortable apartment. Playground for children!
I booked the entire guest house for a reunion weekend. We were a total of 12 guests staying at the Old Lady. We received high quality service and the friendliness was overwhelming. One of my guests said the following: "I used guesthouses 4 times in Calvinia but this was the best I ever used. I will never use another one again!". Breakfast staff were absolutely professional and so friendly! No, I myself have been to 2 different guesthouses and a hotel, but Die Ou Lady is tops!
Very good and had a wonderful stay in a lovely place. Nice people and definitely a recommendation.
We arrived a little later than planned, but reception was always hospitable and very helpful. Even after we were booked in, we were asked if we were comfortable and there were any problems. It was not difficult to find this lovely place.
Room very neat with everything one needs. Secure parking.
See rating.
Pleasant stay. Affordable and very neat. Will definitely stay there again.
Was able to rest wonderfully after a long journey. The unit has everything we needed. Will definitely book there again.
Nothing was too much effort. They carried extra chairs, a lot of braai wood, braai bread. Thanks a lot!
The family unit was great.
The guesthouse is comfortable. It has everything one might need. The people are friendly and helpful. It has a homely atmosphere. It is not only convenient but very neat. I would definitely recommend it.
Enjoyed the town very much, everyone's super friendly. Guest house was in walking distance to everything. Only downfall for us was the mosquitoes, but don't fear the guest house provided us with a spray to rid the house from the mosquitoes, but I suggest to take along the body application of peaceful sleep. The town stores all stock mozzies repellent sprays as well. Property had a nice braai place and also provided fire wood that was lekker. OK Foods stocks everything we needed and was open till late, so was good. The entire town was full of these mozzies even while you shop or walk during the day time you swotting them away, but other then that the stay was lovely. Safe to wander at night along the streets. Calvinia is a place where everyone smiles. It was real nice.
Everything clean and tidy and safe and breakfast from the top shelves with friendly staff.
Was very satisfied with the accommodation. It's clean, neat and the food was delicious and affordable. The staff was friendly and the check-in process effortless. They knew about our arrival.
Our family had a great time staying there. There was a very nice playground for the children. The room was beautiful and we got everything we needed. Will definitely recommend it to people.
An ideal stop over on your travels through Calvinia, super clean and and provided much more than the necessities needed for a stop over. Really enjoyed our stay.
What a beautiful old fashioned experience it was. Lovely equipped self-catering unit. And an enormous double shower! We had a wonderful stay and will definitely stay there again. Not enough stars for Old Lady.
We were warmly welcomed by the owner. The room and bathroom were spacious, comfortable and tastefully furnished and decorated. Everything needed was made available as well as safe and secure parking. The environment was peaceful and quiet. We will most definitely stay at Die Ou Lady Gastehuis again in future.
Highly recommend!
See stars.
We have 3 small children and the playground was a lovely surprise. We arrived at the coffee shop to wash, but Aunt Lucia didn't hesitate to make milkshakes and coffee! Everything is neat and of top quality. I definitely recommend it.
It is a gem in a beautiful town.
The owner is very friendly and helpful. She is willing to go the extra mile for you. The grounds and ablution block are extremely clean and tidy. Her staff is also friendly and helpful. She makes you feel at home.
After a journey of 946 km it was wonderful to arrive at the back-to-back place. For me, the most important thing was that it was clean. Everything in its place.
Thanks Lucia for a friendly welcome and helping us to settle in. Also information on everything that was needed. Will go there again anytime and would recommend it to everyone. Good luck and I wish you all the success in the future!
Lucia received us very kindly, our unit was neat and homely, the heater at least helped to make the cold a little more bearable, but it was also nice to experience the cold. I love the town and we also had a delicious meal at the Blou Nartjie Restaurant. We will definitely stay there again. Thank you Lucia.
The service was fantastic. Room was clean and tidy. The aunt really goes the extra mile to help people. My child really enjoyed the playground.
Annie is a nice spacious room with a cute little kitchen. Lovely warm bed! Just right for that stay in the cold.
We had a great stay at Ou Lady. Lucia is a wonderful hostess and accommodating. Had a great stay and we even stayed an extra night. We will come back!
Second time we stayed here and still satisfied. Changes made since last visit are well thought out. One or two small things that could be improved e.g. kitchen cloth and drying cloth which we could not find. Biscuit was nice, but only 4 for 5 people. Would stay here again though, excellent value for money.
It was a wonderful cremation with the old fashioned house and the beautiful rooms inside. Restaurant at guest house very convenient. Felt very welcome and workers were very hospitable.
We had a nice one night stay. We only arrived late the evening in Calvinia, but was welcomed very friendly. Everything was clean, near and functional. Thank you, I will definitely recommend it.
I would visit The Old Lady again anytime.
The Old Lady Guest House is a neat guest house where everything is well thought out. Our stay was pleasant and you can expect good tourist advice and good food at their restaurant as a bonus!
We were received very kindly and the room and porch as comfortable and beautiful.
Neat, clean, and comfortable as always.
See stars.
Thanks for a nice overnight stop.
Pleasant people and accommodation.
Would recommend it. Was nice.
Room was very neat and comfortable. Reception was very good and breakfast was outstanding.
The hostess was friendly and helpful. The room we booked was neat and clean. They turned on the air conditioner and it was nice and cool after the hot ride in the car. I would recommend anyone to stay there. You get value for your money.
Very good service, great hospitality. Well-equipped unit. Would recommend ordering breakfast and lunch too. Good value for money. Was nice to take meals on the patio.
We were surprised by the kindness and hospitality. Delicious extensive breakfast and a nice clean room with shower. Very nice.
See stars.
We had a great time and the place was very well equipped.
It's the little things here at Die Ou Lady Gastehuis that surprises the guest and we were immediately so happy that we decided to stay here. The rooms area beautifully appointed and the kitchen is equipped with all the extras for guets who want to prepare their own meals or have a braai. Delicious breakfast and we had a nice chat with the owners which made the experience unfrogetable. I recommend this place to anyone passing through Calvinia, definitely worth it. Top notch hospitality.
We got such a nice welcoming we felt as though we'd come home - we were on our way to the Northern Cape for a family gathering when I called Tannie Lucia from Vanrhynsdorp to tell her that we would be late, she assured us she'd wait for us! This was true, sincere hospitality at its best - it made our weekend. My wife, mother-in-law and the kids felt welcome immediately. After 7 years that we hadn't been in the Northern Cape/home, it felt like we were being welcomed back home - thank you Old Lady and Tannie Lucia.
Excellent hostess who goes to a lot of trouble to make you feel at home. Can definitely recommend it to future visitors. She goes to so much trouble with the smaller details like the high quality towels, excellent linen etc.
We were treated like kings by Lucia. Went out of her way to accommodate us. Even though it's an Old Lady, the place is tasteful and modern. We had the best breakfast in town and everything was so tasty and the table was tastefully set. Thanks Lucia, we had a wonderful time.
This is definitely a gem in the Karoo! Lovely room, friendly owner and delicious breakfast. We'll definitely be returning.
Definitely wort it, even if it was only for one night. Aircon saved our lives in 44 degrees. See you soon.
Lucia was extremely friendly and helpful and everything was as we expected.
The rooms were clean and very tidy. Electric blankets were on beds and neat alternative blankets were available.
Calvinia is a historic town with loads of attractions. Very neat and very hospitable people. The owner of Old Lady was very hospitable and friendly and makes you feel at home. The rooms are comfortable and after a day's journey you can relax immediately in the very peaceful atmosphere.
The Old Lady and the hostess welcome you and make you feel immediately at home. Thank you Lucia.
Room was very clean and tidy. Reception was cordial. Very child friendly.
See stars.
The hostess welcomed us with open arms when we arrived. The unit was very clean, tidy and well furnished. Bathroom could do with a bench on which you can put your clothes. Everything else was perfect!
The reception was very generous and friendly. The facilities were excellent and everything was in its place. It was certainly a privilege to be able to use Die Ou Lady Gastehuis as overnight accommodation.
Very nicely decorated and we really appreciated the electric blanket and air heater to beat the cold. The kitchen is well equipped and we were able to relax wonderfully!
Owner informed us that there was a power outage, which we really appreciated. First morning we had fantastic breakfast, and felt very welcoming. 2nd day there was no one who could make breakfast, and we were not informed about it. 3rd day it was the same. There is WiFi, but it was not explained to us in terms of the password.
See the stars.
Thanks, Lucia, for the extra effort and the hospitality you showered us with. We really appreciate it. We slept over for one night, the area is nice and quiet, and we just felt so at home.
Die Ou Lady is a Lady. There are to few words to describe our stay. Had a good night's rest. Very clean! Friendliest owner and hostess. Most delicious griddlecake for breakfast!
Friendly reception, special request for a mattress for a child was handled with ease. Fully equipped self-catering room, large, neat and clean with TV and DStv. Very affordable! Beautiful old house, nicely renovated!
We slept wonderfully at the Old Lady Guest House on the way to Paternoster. The apartment was clean, beds comfortable, the reception friendly and the air conditioner helped a lot against the December heat.
Everything is very neat.
We had an easy comfortable night's stopover in Calvinia en route to the West Coast. Die Ou Lady was as charming and pretty as it looked online. The room was large and cool and sweetly decorated. There was no door closing off the toilet from the room which was a little uncomfortable for us as friends sharing.
Lucia received us so warmly and immediately made us feel at home. Rooms were comfortable and stylish. Breakfast was 5 star.
